Nadine, you preach violence. I don't. No wonder you are drawn to Israel -- so much beautiful hatred and violence. So much revenge. So much blood. And the glorious assassinations -- the children running in the streets with the smell of high explosives in the air. It must make you smile every day.

Hamas Founder Killed in Israeli Airstrike
By IBRAHIM BARZAK, Associated Press Writer

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Sheik Ahmed Yassin, the founder and leader of the Hamas militant group that targeted Israelis in suicide bombings, was killed by missiles fired from Israeli helicopters as he left a mosque at daybreak Monday, witnesses said.

Tens of thousands of Gaza residents, many of them in tears, poured into the streets after Hamas announced the death of the quadriplegic Yassin over mosque loudspeakers. Masked fighters at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, where Yassin's body was taken, shot into the air in rage. Angry mourners burned tires, sending black smoke over Gaza City.
